HALLOWEEN MEMORIES : Told by RYAN MARTINIE – Mudvayne.

FROM THE MPJ Archives : Another fun story to be brought back from the archives (2005). Enjoy.

RYAN – My most memorable Halloween: When I was little, I remember that I had a typical go-to-Wal-Mart blow-up monster outfit that kind of fit over your head. You painted your face black, to blacken your face out and there was this blow up thing that fit on the top of your head. Half way through trick-or-treating, the top deflated and I had this thing flopping on my head. But I kept trick-or-treating, and it probably looked better that way. I also live near Santa Cruz, CA now, and in Santa Cruz, they block off the streets on Halloween where everyone comes out and do this big “Marti- Gras” kind of thing. They have these bumper stickers that say ‘Santa Cruz weird?” There are plenty of weird people in Santa Cruz. The Costumes were fun. Not really that ordinary but really tongue n cheek type. Halloween has a lot of good memories. I was the kid who traded my candy in for fruit, well at least the candy that I didn’t like.
